After dinner, Joe declined Jasmine’s offer to send him home and decided to walk home alone instead.
Jasmine thanked him once again before driving her limited edition Bentley back to her villa.
As she gripped the steering wheel with one hand and the two magical pills in her other hand, Jasmine wondered whether she should give both of the pills to her grandfather, or whether she should keep one of the pills for herself.
If she gave both the pills to her grandfather, she would feel a little depressed because she would be missing out on this magical pill herself.
However, if she kept one of the magical pills for herself, she could not help but wonder if her grandfather would be furious if he found out about it in the future.
After putting some thought into it, the desire to possess the magical pill for herself overcame all the other worries in her mind. Jasmine carefully put the magical pill into the glove compartment in her car as she decided to hold on to the second pill first. If she needed it in the future, she would use it. If she had no use for it but her grandfather needed it, she would give it to him then.
When that time came and if Jasmine successfully saved her grandfather’s life twice with the magical pill, she believed that he would surely treat her differently.
After she had arrived back at the villa, Lord Moore was lying on the sofa as he eagerly awaited Jasmine’s return.
When Joe had come to his house previously, he did not manage to improve the physical condition of his body even though he had managed to save his life. He was still feeling rather fragile and sickly. After several days of rest, he was starting to feel slightly better, but he still needed someone to help him if he needed to stand up or walk.
For an arrogant and proud man like him, the physical inconvenience was one of his biggest regrets in life.
Therefore, he was really pinning all of his hopes on the magical pill concocted by Mr. Smith to regain his health and agility.
If Jasmine was able to bring back the magical pill, Lord Moore felt that he would surely be able to get rid of all his current trouble and ailment, and he would be able to regain the feeling of being as strong as he was ten or twenty years ago as soon as he had eaten the medicine that Joe had prepared.
When Jasmine came into the living room with the magical pill in her hand, Lord Moore struggled to sit upright as he asked in a trembling voice, “Jasmine, did Mr. Smith give you the medicine?”
Jasmine nodded before handing the pill over to her grandfather. “Grandpa, this is the pill that Mr. Smith has concocted this time. You should take it as soon as possible!”
“Good! Good! Good!” Lord Moore repeated it several times in excitement. “Did Mr. Simmons take the pill?”
“Yes, he took it,” Jasmine replied. “Mr. Simmons only ate half of the pill according to Mr. Smith’s prescription. However, even with just one half of the pill, all of his old injuries and illnesses were cured immediately! It was simply amazing.”
Lord Moore became very excited when he heard her words. “That’s amazing! Hurry, bring me a glass of water! I want to take the medicine now.”
The maid hurriedly brought him a cup of warm water.
All the members of the Moore family stood in front of the old man because they were all curious to witness the miraculous healing moment.
In fact, all the descendants of the Moore family hoped that the old man would be able to live for a few more years so that he would be able to continue protecting and looking out for them. Therefore, they sincerely hoped that the old man’s health and physical condition would improve greatly after taking the magical pill.
The old man quickly swallowed the pill with the warm water. After taking the pill, Lord Moore could immediately feel a burst of energy sweeping through all the meridians in his entire body.
Lord Moore felt as though someone was repeatedly injecting him with a burst of energy, and he tried to stand up without relying on his wooden cane.
Everyone around him was very anxious as they were afraid that the old man would fall. Therefore, they were all prepared to step forward and catch him if he fell.
Unexpectedly, the old man stood up effortlessly!
He did not need to use any strength or force, and he stood up without shaking at all.
Lord Moore could feel a surge of power in his legs, and he immediately summoned the courage to start walking.
He took his first step forward without any hesitation at all.
No hurry, no panic, no tiredness, no rush, no shaking, and no breathlessness at all!
Everyone was shocked by this!
Wasn’t he a dying man just a few days ago? He looked like a middle-aged person now!
Lord Moore quickly regained his strength and control over his own body. He was so excited and quickly tried to walk a few more steps, and each of his steps was fast and steady!
This made him extremely excited, and he laughed as he exclaimed, “This is amazing! This is simply amazing! Mr. Smith really is a God!”
Then, Lord Moore turned around to face Jasmine as he said seriously, “Jasmine, if I can get a good son-in-law like Mr. Smith, I will be able to live at least until I am a hundred years old! Your father, uncle, brother, and yourself will also be able to live a long and healthy life! Once our family can live up to a hundred years old for three consecutive generations, we will be a very strong family that can not be shaken at all!”
Jasmine was stunned.
Her grandfather was a dying man, but Joe had saved his life. Even after saving his life, her grandfather had still been very sick and exhausted.
Yet, as soon as her grandfather had taken the medicine prepared by Joe, it seemed as though he was twenty years younger in an instant! It would not be surprising if her grandfather lived for another twenty years! By that time, he would have become a centenarian!
How many centenarians were there in this world? Very few!
Moreover, if the head of a wealthy and prestigious family could live beyond a hundred years old, it would be very good fortune for the family because the family would be able to grow under his guidance.
As soon as the head of the family died, there would immediately be fallouts and internal fights amongst the members of the family.
There had been so many cases where families fell apart after the head of the family passed away because the descendants could not agree with one another. Thanks to Joe, the Moore family would be able to continue prospering for at least another twenty years!
That night, everyone who received the magical pill from Joe could not sleep at all.
Jasmine, who personally witnessed the miracle happening to her grandfather, was also very excited.
